nice narrative, but lack of examples

mostly built on general and common sense suggestions that without concrete examples remain quite vague. A little bit desapointed, specially after reading the genius book "How to make friends and influence people"

ok book

ok book A little outdated. i had hoped for something more in line with internet use.

Relevant but skims surface

I’d like more examples of situations and options on how to handle. But still a good start.

Interesting

I like the simplicity of the topic. Sometimes, we think a situation is so much bigger then it actually is. This book made it easy in bite size pieces.

Excelent book!

It goes direct to the main point. Gives you an easy to follow program that you can understand and put in practice right away.. while I listened to it I had the chance to interact with new people and this book helped me to get me introduced better and have the absolute confidence to start a conversation about different subjects!
